Cronk heroics seal Hockeyroos

ANNA Flanagan's goal two minutes before half-time secured a 1-0 victory for the Hockeyroos over the United States on Day Six.

Australia had goaltender Toni Cronk to thank for the victory after she made a number of saves, including most crucially a penalty-stroke stop from Lauren Crandall four minutes before Flanagan's strike.
